Ok, so I know in the book it says 1 pack master per two rat ogres. Now I've seen people put as many as 5 packers in a six man ro unit. What I wanna know is...where can I find the errata/FAQ letting me do that? With my gaming group that'll be a neccessity

The Skaven book does indeed say 1 per 2 Rat Ogres. BUT GW recently released FAQ's on their website for individual army books for 8th edition which countradicts this. It is still 1 master per every 2 Rat Ogres, but for some reason you ignore the first packmaster for these purposes. So you can have 2 for 2-3 Ogres, 3 for 4-5 Ogres and 4 for 6 Ogres. I dont think you can get 5 for 6 Ogres though... Check the GW wbsite for this list of FAQ's - Sammy |

It never said in the first place that the one you start with counts towards the max you can add, people just assumed it did. |

The old FAQ said it did so that is how it was run till the most recent FAQs changed that. |

They could save a lot of trouble by just making it 1 for 1 as in the old book. It's not like it's that big of a difference, especially given how much of a liability it is to only have 3 PM's in a 5 RO unit. |
